Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the TC3200S and TC3200D?
A: The TC3200S tests at 1550nm only with a 22dB dynamic range. The TC3200D adds a second 1310nm wavelength and offers a higher 24dB dynamic range at 1310nm, making it better suited for dual-wavelength acceptance testing and networks where 1310nm characterization is required. If you only need 1550nm testing, the TC3200S is the more cost-effective choice.
Q: What does the built-in VFL do?
A: The TC3200S includes a 10mW 650nm visual fault locator with CW, 1Hz, and 2Hz modes. It injects visible red light into the fiber to quickly identify breaks, bends, and bad connectors without needing a separate instrument — visible through fiber jacket for fast field diagnosis.
Q: Can the TC3200S test copper cables?
A: Yes. The TC3200S includes RJ45 Cable Tracker, RJ45 Sequence, and RJ45 Line Length (up to 300m) functions for testing and tracing copper network cables alongside fiber testing.
Q: What file format does the TC3200S use for OTDR traces?
A: The TC3200S saves traces in SOR (Standard OTDR Record) format, which is the industry-standard format compatible with most OTDR analysis software including EXFO FastReporter and others.
Q: What warranty does the TC3200S come with?
A: For warranty details or support, contact us at info@splicermarket.com.
